Labour Timers |
Back Top Previous Next |
Labour timers (in the bottom status bar on the right-hand side) provide a way to add actual labour to an object (job, quote etc.) via a start/pause/stop timer. When stopping a timer, the actual time is logged against the object.
Timers are also accessible by selecting Timers from Switch Windows on the ribbon’s quick access toolbar.
Clicking Timers displays the Timers form. A list of active timers will be displayed.
From this screen, new timers can be added and existing timers paused, stopped or deleted.
The caption on the Labour Timers icon displays the number of active timers the logged user has running. In the image below, there are three timers running for that user.
Timers are server side, meaning they continue to run even when exiting Jim2.
Timers can be created, paused and stopped from any device. For example, start a timer via Jim2 Mobile, then complete it via the Jim2 Client when returning to the office. Timers can also be paused. For example, being onsite from 9am to 5pm with one hour paused for lunch. Jim2 records the timer as a single labour entry as follows:
